Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) has been a part of our day-to-day lives for a few decades, and it has been utilised to make our lives easier and more pleasant in many ways. However, as much as it provides more comfort, it also presents a myriad of challenges. The majority of these challenges are caused by security risks and bad intentions on the part of the users. The threats were mostly focussed on data confidentiality and privacy, among other things. The Internet of Things (IoT) has sparked widespread anxiety about the potential for information leakage. As a result, a secure environment is essential to ensure that data is transmitted from its devices over the network without being compromised. Energy and computational power, on the other hand, are two key limitations for any IoT device, since it is often run on a remote system with limited energy supply and computing capacity; it also transfers data into the world of the Internet in a relatively unprotected manner. In this work, the authors attempted to identify several current steganographic processes that may be used with Internet of Things devices while requiring little computing and energy resources.
